Lee bookended a 12-2 run to open the game for Golden State, as Boston missed
7-of-8 shots and committed four turnovers to dig an early hole. The Celtics
closed to within eight, 30-22, after one quarter.

"I thought they got out and ran," said Bass. "They went out and made some
shots and we turned the ball over."

Golden State scored the first seven points of the second quarter to take a 15-
point edge, but Boston worked its way back to within nine at 5:55.

Thompson followed with a 3 which sparked a 19-7 run to end the quarter and
give the Warriors a 61-40 lead at the break.

Both teams traded baskets to open the third quarter until Lee made a putback
layup to begin an 11-2 run that stretched the margin to 30, 76-46, that Lee
closed with a jumper.

Golden State led by as many as 31 in the third and let its foot off the pedal
in the fourth, cruising to victory.
